White Bread - Bread Machine image

Classic simple white bread. Great for sandwiches & makes amazing toast. I have a Cooks model 780-2159 bread maker. This recipe comes more or less right out their instruction manual. Bread mixes are convenient & always seem to work, but are really expensive. I buy my yeast by a pint jar rather than packets. The yeast will keep for years in the fridge. I buy my flour in 12lb size bags at member mega store. Preferably bread or 00 flour than general purpose. Making my purchases this way, I figure this loaf cost about 35 cents.
